That wasn't true decades ago when zoos were just small enclosures. Modern zoologists understand and cater to their critters and design enclosures in a way that most animals will readily reproduce in captivity now - a sure sign that they are thriving. <br /><br />Those people that work with whales and dolphins in aquariums know and understand their biology and natural history, and love those creatures far, far more than the people screaming for animal "rights."<br /><br />Read some PETA literature sometime.

I miss that beloved pet, an Applehead Red Point Siamese every day. She's been gone since 1997.

The good libs in that state are outraged and starting a petition drive to halt the state. The comments about bears on the site were hilarious "they are gentle" "they are harmless" "they are no threat to humans" etc. etc. etc. <br /><br />I like bears. I like knowing they are there when I'm out in the woods. But I understand what they are, how they behave and what they are fully capable of doing. But these comments show just how utterly ignorant and detached from wild animals these kind of people are. <br /><br />Of course, the PETA types don't want bears shot, and they want whales with human rights, but most of those same folks are all for cutting up and sucking babies out of the womb even at birth. Sad, sad, sad.<br /><br />"Silverfiddle said...<br /><br /> @ FT: Genuine reverence for all life<br /><br /> That, my friend is the key.

Every time they killed a bear, buffalo, or elk, they thanked their "brother" for providing them with his meat and skin and wished its spirit a pleasant journey. Then they started butchering.

However, I'm happy that the judge dismissed the case without trial.

Depending on what you're eating, of course.<br /><br />I caught that PETA verdict on FOX news and laughed me arse off, since I was unaware that they were actually trying to give animals the same status as humans to begin with.<br /><br />Certainly the opposite verdict would have empowered those drooling cloud-dwellers immensely, which no doubt is exactly what they want, political power. Screw the animals, that's just a way to get there. But it is amazing how many people actually climbed onto that bandwagon with them who are sincere in believing that animals should have human status. Definitely, the inmates are running the asylum.

I had a lot of respect for its owner, so I felt a moral obligation to look after the bird when its owner died. At first it was just a duty -- a chore -- and then one day I began to realize that this creature had bonded with me. That bird KNEW that I was the one feeding him and keeping his cage nice and clean. He also NEEDED to talk with me. Just feeing him wasn't enough. He wanted my ATTENTION -- just the way little babies want and need our attention. It may sound idiotic, if you've never bonded with a bird, but we had regular CONVERSATIONS. Nothing "intellectual," of course, but an exchange of feelings -- mutual <i>regard</i>, if you will.<br /><br />To make a long story short, I had that bird for twenty years, and when he died -- very suddenly one morning he just keeled over and lay at the bottom of his age -- I felt a terrible stab of grief.<br /><br />He's been gone for years now, but I still miss him. <br /><br />Now you an dismiss that as poppycock, but if you do, I KNOW you are wrong.<br /><br />There's a wonderful little book called Kinship With All Life that everyone should read. I've forgotten the author's name, but remember the contents. It's very ld, and long out of print, but you could probably find at at Amazon.com.<br /><br />Genuine reverence for all life is not the same thing as the craziness exhibited by PETA whose primary motives are political -- just another anger-driven, hypocritical pretense to achieve greater Centralized Power.<br /><br />Those who love do not act like the shrieking harpies and dour old scolds of the left.<br /><br />~ FreeThinkeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-5159258323735594822012-02-09T08:39:45.411-06:002012-02-09T08:39:45.411-06:00This is what happens to a society of ignorant, pur...This is what happens to a society of ignorant, purposefully-illiterate morons.<br /><br />Shakespeare's words have come true: We are angry apes indeed making the angels weep.<br /><br />Dr Larry Arnn, in his book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Founders-Key-Connection-Declaration-Constitution/dp/1595554726" rel="nofollow">The Founders' Key</a>, provides the tonic. He explains how the founders' philosophy was grounded in an understand of the natural hierarchy of God, man, beast.<br /><br />Animals do not enjoy the light of reason but rather act upon instinct. For this reason among others, they are not held to the same standards of responsibility as humans and are not held to the standards of law like humans.<br /><br />How can one say they have rights when they have no responsibility under the law. <br /><br />http://books.google.com/books?id=EA13PCe8vXMC&lpg=PA52&ots=wifXDJ5m3U&dq=arnn%20man%20hog&pg=PA52#v=onepage&q&f=falseSilverfiddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13541652236676260219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-52744335723139801832012-02-09T08:17:50.329-06:002012-02-09T08:17:50.329-06:00As a person who, like the late Albert Schweizer of...As a person who, like the late Albert Schweizer of Lambarene, reveres Life, itself, and has enormous empathy with animals I will not rest until every incidence of PREDATION is eradicated from the Face of the Earth.<br /><br />The animals are WRONG to use each other as a source of nourishment.
